Why is the moon worshiped on Karva Chauth?
The moon is worshiped on Karva Chauth to wish for a long life, unbroken good fortune and happiness and peace in married life. The Moon is considered a symbol of peace, prosperity and mental stability. Worshiping the moon calms the mind and the relationship between husband and wife is strong.
Do this if the moon is not visible
On the night of Karva Chauth, go to a close Shiva temple where the moon is clearly visible on the forehead of Lord Shiva. The Moon is always adorned on Lord Shiva’s forehead. After Chandrodaya, you can go to the temple and complete the fast of Karva Chauth by offering Arghya to the moon on the forehead of Shiva. With this method you will get the virtuous fruit of the fast.
If the moon is not visible then there is another solution. After moonrise, take a silver coin or a round piece of silver. On Karva Chauth, you can offer it as a symbol of the Moon, because silver is the auspicious gem of the moon. By doing this, you will also get virtuous fruits.
